100 Million Chinese Cut Ties With the Communist Party
More than 100 million Chinese people have withdrawn from the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliated organizations as of Sunday. The picture shows a parade in New York commemorating the "Tuidang" movement on March 27. (Dai Bing/The Epoch Times) A peaceful movement that encourages renunciations from the Chinese Communist Party now counts 100 million Chinesethat is one in every 13 Chinese peopleas its participants. The show of mass defiance is unsettling to the largest political party in the world.
Having 100 million Chinese people withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party is an occasion to celebrate and a historic milestone in Chinese history, Yi Rong, chairwoman of the New York-based Global Service Center for Quitting the Chinese Communist Party, said at a press conference.
It means a lot for Chinas present and future, as well as for Chinas transition toward a future free from the terror imposed by the Communist Party, she said.
Known as Tuidang in Chinese, the movement for Chinese to withdraw from the Party began in late 2004, following the publication of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party by The Epoch Times.
The Nine Commentaries is an editorial series which details the CCPs history, human rights record, and episodes of terror such as the Cultural Revolution, the Great Leap Forward, the Tiananmen Square Massacre, and the persecution of spiritual practice Falun Gongtopics that are either ignored or misreported under the CCPs unceasing regime of censorship and propaganda.
The editorial, which was spread to mainland China via fax, e-mail, and mail, led to an overwhelming amount of letters to the Chinese edition of The Epoch Times from readers who wante! d to ren ounce their ties to the CCP and its affiliated organizations, such as the communist Youth League and the Young Pioneers.
It is estimated that over 700 million Chinese people have shared an affiliation with one of these three groups.
The number of people that have now renounced the Party is 100 million.
These 100 million include people of all social strata, from the top, such as military personnel and government officials, all the way to the lower strata, such as villagers and students, crossing all social classes, Yi said.
A resident of Chinas northeastern province of Liaoning, Li Yumei on Aug. 4 renounced affiliations with the Youth League and Young Pioneers, organizations that she said she will never join again.
After reading the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, I seemed to have woken up from an illusion, Li said in her statement. During the six decades of its rule, [the CCP] has always seen the people as slaves who could be used at any time and in any way. It has used sly words to lure us in our childhood into joining the Partys affiliated organizations such as the Youth League and the Young Pioneerssomething I have the utmost regret for.
To cut ties with the evil Partys lies, brainwashing, and mental control, and for the name of freedom and democracy, for the people who want to be able to make their own decisions, I would like to solemnly renounce from its Youth League and Young Pioneers.
Li Dayong, executive director of the Global Service Center for Quitting the Chinese Communist Party, said that the statements are part of a war between good and evil.
The U.S. Senate took a leading step in recognizing the Tuidang movement by introducing a bipartisan resolution in July in recognition of the movement. Li said that the resolution represents the international communitys recognition of Tuidang.
While the Tuidang movement implicitly supports regime change in China, it does not come with replacement political pr! escripti ons, and is understood by both its activists and participants as a spiritual and ethical awakening rather than a political revolution.
